Study Summary

This study will assess the safety of changing pain medications (opioids) adult sickle cell patients take to another type of medication therapy (buprenorphine). Patients will be asked questions about their quality of life. Other tools for assessment will also be administered.

Primary Outcome

Data will be collected on need for hospitalization within 72 hours of conversion due to withdrawal induced vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC). If 2 out of the first 5 patients require hospitalization within 72 hours of conversion the study will be stopped and we will assess what changes need to be made in the protocol to decrease the risk of hospitalization triggered by the conversion.

Interventions

  • DRUG buprenorphine
